Another great piece from Galley 1988's Is This Thing On? I hope Ian Glaubinger displays a bigger version soon as I'd love to see all the details, but just the references to Stripes and Spaceballs is enough to keep me happy for now.

I didn't realize there was another whole page of cool prints from Galley 1988's Is This Thing On? Shazbut! If I had seen this Mork & Mindy propaganda poster back in 1978 I would have joined without question. Nanu-Nanu! (Mork poster by Tom Whalen)

"[The] image of Kirk with the Tribbles reminded me of the hairstyles Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill, and Will Ferell were all sporting a few years back. They are each big Apatow collaborators, and for a minute it seemed like they were also everywhere."

Dave MacDowell takes on Richard Pryor's most infamous moment for Gallery 1988 and Funny or Die's new show, Is This Thing On?

Drake Brodhal takes on Gilbert Gottfried as the parrot Iago, but in an even more annoying fashion. I don't know how Jafar can stand it.

So I Got That Goin' For Me, Which Is Nice

Gallery 1988 has teamed up with Funny or Die for a new show, Is This Thing On? which will feature over 100 artists creating portraits of funny people, opening January 7.

In this preview, artist NC Winters takes a shot at Bill Murray, as his classic Caddyshack character.

"So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-lagunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, 'Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know.' And he says, 'Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness.' So I got that goin' for me, which is nice."
